Christ almighty Mop, you're handed a precious gift, and you gripe about it! I'd kill for 92 degree days. For the 3rd year in a row our Spring has been too cool and damp. I'm having to deal with powdery mildew on my tomato and squash plants. Wednesday we might, that's a big might, hit 75 then it's downhill all the way to Saturday with 65 degrees. It's almost July it should be in the 80s. It sucks, it really sucks. And besides I need it in the 80s and 90s just for overall personal comfort.
annu i`m from the uk - complaining about the weather is a requirment for living here 
life in the valley - a plague of slugs and snails snacked on the broadbeans french beans courgettes - devestation in the salad plot - been a wet spring and early summer - now a four day heatwave 33c 92f forecast which is hot for the uk and with humidity not comfortable - global warming bros any ways the washing dries quick on the line preserving the modesty of the stalwart olive which has survived gale force winds heavy snow torrential rain drought and hot temperatures - i shall savour the hand full of beans shortly
so 15 french beans only 5 survived
and 8 out of 36 broad beans - not a good result
obviously being a spy plane you cant see them unless they are landing of taking off
Oh, the plane?! I was thinking of the future wine (or grape jelly) made with the grapes from the grape vine??!!
Looking at the last plane pic reminds me of when I was a kid, keep in mind that was about 12 years after the asteroid killed the dinosaurs. Only at night and not often a strange sounding plane would fly over what was then navy housing for Barbers Point NAS to land at Hickam AFB, no lights on, darkened. Then the Soviets shot one down, it was a U2 Spy Plane. After the secret was out the thing would land in the daytime.
I too thought Iris at first, then recanted that thought!
while trump and his dickheads are distracting americans from his crimes by picking fights the valley has to tolerate this regularly - bombers and spy planes interupting the peace well not bothered just piss off
mean while i have to deal with a sheep/goat/dog hybrid
